I literally broke down into tears doing this one night. Was running something that would take hours to complete and noticed an issue at maybe 11pm. Tried to troubleshoot and could not for the life of me figured it out. Thought to myself, surely chatgpt can help me figure this out quickly. Fast forward to 3am, work night: “no, as stated several times prior, this will not resolve the issue, it causes it to X, Y, Z, when it should be A, B, C. Do you not understand the issue?”
“I apologize for any misunderstanding. You are correct, this will not cause the program to A, B, C. You should… Inserts the same response it’s been giving me for several hours”
It was at that moment that I realized these large language models might not currently be as advanced as people make them out to be
Oh yeah. I was learning some Haskell with the “help” of GPT4. It send me down a super frustrating rabbit hole where in the end I concluded that I knew Haskell better than GPT4 and it was wrong from the very start 🤷♂️
When you end up resorting to saying things like “wow, this is wonderful, but… It breaks my code into a million tiny pieces” Or “for the love of God do you have any idea what you’re actually doing?” It’s a sign that perhaps stack overflow is still your best (and only) ally
Almost as infuriating as giving chatGPT compilation errors and going in circles for a code fix
